    Maybe that was just wear and tear?

    'Forgot to say;
    Trevi is nailed on. I wondered about Gammas.
    I've looked at Ritmos, Montes/X1/9/128 Deltas etc., but they are all different to the Beta, but similar to each other.

    Before someone says "No, it'll be a threaded nut", I mean the Trevi is a definite. A Trevi is a Beta Sedan, near enough.

    Hi Peter. Good to see you back. I still 'lurk' here.....

    I also still have that lovely 12V timing template you laser cut for me, in pride of place in a display cabinet in the lounge

    Good to hear from you Chris. I thought I cut it from pink acrylic - I wouldn't have it in my lounge...

    Are you still building Seven type cars?

    You did indeed, and it's glorious

    Finished building the 'Midlana' a while back, did some tinkering, it's now sorted as I like it....but I never use it. I strongly suspect I will try to sell it soon. Daft having it sat in the shed never going anywhere. Sadly, I gave absolutely zero consideration to what I would actually do with it once it was built. One of the reasons I sold the Corse was that I no longer enjoyed driving. That hasn't really changed, and now I'm retired, I do even less, and we still have the Westfield, so really, what was I thinking.....(hint, clearly I wasn't). Vickie keeps trying to encourage me to use the car more but as I say, no joy driving on the roads these days. No interest in track days or the like. Basically I'm a miserable, reclusive, misanthrope.

    Can't imagine how difficult it will be selling something like this though. Not as if there are any others out there to compare it to.

    I can relate to all this, Chris.
